Organizers of the Cincinnati event now claim they're going to have at least 1,200 participants in their public temper tantrum. This sum was supposedly amassed thanks to hype by Clear Channel's right-wing WKRC radio.

WKRC barely has 10 listeners these days, let alone 1,200. Somehow I doubt the endless promotion by that station would draw that many participants to the event.

This of course is the same WKRC that helped organize pro-war rallies in the run-up to the Iraq invasion.

This much is clear: Most of the people at the Tea Party mockery won't be locals. A majority of them will be professional right-wing agitators who travel from city to city for rallies like this.

Resume

The blog ad industry has blackballed me and all of my websites because of my political views, so I can no longer support this site through ads. Accordingly, I have posted my resume for prospective employers to view.
